Airborne Ranger Infantry

My daddy was a soldier in a foreign war

But he doesn't like to talk about it any more

He kept a picture of my mama right by his heart

He'd give it one last look before the fighting would start

He said all i ask is that you don't forget

Cause the war's not over when the fighting ends

There's a part of me that will always be

Just a boy in a hole with an m-16

I left my best friend lying in a pool of blood

While i crawled away through the brush and mud

If i could choose to go back again

I'd die lying there next to him

I still see his face when i close my eyes

And i won't forget his sacrifice

There's a part of me that will always be

Just a boy in a hole with an m-16

Airborne ranger infantry

I didn't do it for the money didn't do it for fame

I didn't do it so the world would remember my name

I did it for my family and my country

And my brothers who died right next to me

And all we ask is that you don't forget

Cause the wars not over when the fighting ends

There's a part of us that will always be

Just boys in a hole with our m-16s

Honoring souls and memories
